By Francisco Salazar - This was not in the script. Or at least, Jhonny Gonzalez was not supposed to score what would probably be one of the biggest upsets of the year so far in 2013.

But it did happen because Gonzalez had his own ending in mind. Gonzalez not only dropped Mares, but proved at 31 years of age - his career is far from over. And now, he has a world title belt as a bargaining chip in future negotiations for fights down the road.

Gonzalez stopped the heavy-favorite Mares in the first round of their scheduled bout at the Stubhub Center in Carson, CA.

Mares has proven himself against top competition. That's why last night was so shocking. His last six opponents have been very tough.
